Monday- Into the Wild

We left Starke behind and headed farther down Highway 100 toward the town of Keystone Heights.  After only about twelve miles we then headed north about six miles for our first stay at a Florida State Park. 

 

Mike Roess Goldhead SP is very large with hundreds of acres, three campgrounds, and about twenty cabins to rent.  The soil here is very sandy.  The Park was build during the Great Depression with men from The CCC under the direction of the FDR Administration.  It took four years to build all the roads and buildings

The picnic tables and drinking fountains are like they were when first built.

We have a large quiet campsite and love the outdoor experience so far.
